Eight-channel low-side driver with SPI control
The MAX4820ETP+ is an 8-channel low-side power driver for switching relays and solenoids. Each N-channel output sinks up to 70 mA continuously, with a typical on-resistance of 2 Ohm.
Load and thermal considerations
Because the outputs are low-side N-channel, the load must be connected between the positive supply rail and the output pin. The output switches the load return to ground.
Lifecycle and compliance
The MAX4820ETP+ is listed as Active by the manufacturer with no NRND or end-of-life notices. It is ROHS3 compliant, meeting the latest EU exemption rules. The part ships in Tube form (not Tape & Reel), which is the factory standard for this order code. Buyers should confirm handling medium with their distributor when ordering for pick-and-place assembly.
